Description

The classic pinwheel appetizer loaded with some new flavors. The subtle onion flavor from the cream cheese is balanced by the smokiness from the beef. Then there is the slight sweet and mild heat from the peppadew peppers, and the crunch from the lettuce. Let’s just say they are a perfect hors d’oeuvre!

Ingredients

  • 3 whole Small Flour Tortillas
  • 5 ounces, weight Chive And Onion Cream Cheese, Room Temperature
  • 6 slices Nueske’s Smoked Beef
  • ½ cups Peppadew Peppers, Chopped, Patted Dry
  • 1 cup Romaine Lettuce, Finely Chopped, Patted Dry

Preparation

You can already see how simple this is. Start by laying a tortilla on plastic wrap. Make sure the plastic wrap is larger than the tortilla. Spread cream cheese evenly on the tortilla, making sure you cover the entire tortilla.

Next add 2 slices of the smoked beef. If you have never had Nueske’s smoked beef before, it is a must! Top the smoked beef with some of the chopped peppers, then top with the shredded lettuce.

Gently roll up the tortilla. Place in the center of the plastic wrap, and fold over the plastic wrap. Take the ends of your plastic wrap and begin rolling backwards toward you. Continue this until you have a super tight roll. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.

Place these in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before unrolling.

When you are ready to serve, remove them from the refrigerator, unroll them from the plastic wrap, and cut into 1-inch slices.

The result is nothing but amazing. The subtle onion flavor from the cream cheese is balanced by the smokiness from the beef. Then there is the slight sweet and mild heat from the peppadew peppers, and the crunch from the lettuce. Let’s just say they are a perfect hors d’oeuvre! Hope you enjoy.
